8 ABSTRACT This thesis examines several Japanese government policies that impact on the environment in order to determine whether they incorporate a sufficient ethical substance. Japan built its domestic environmental policy on the experiences of combating its catastrophic post war pollution crises; these crises were created as the result of the country s relentless drive towards becoming a world economic super-power. As with many other countries, global environmental issues are an important agenda in governments policies and from the late 1980s the Japanese government incorporated global initiatives into its domestic environmental directives. Since that time climate change issues have become a focal point of Japan s environmental policies, and by the 1990s the country had by means of regulations moved from being one of the world s most polluted countries, to one that had become one of the world s most environmentally responsible. However, Japan s economic success from the 1980s led to mounting criticism over its overseas business practices, practices that discounted the value of the ecosystems of its trading partners. In the enquiry into the ethics of the policies, this thesis explores how Western philosophers combined their theories to develop a Western environmental ethics code ; the thesis also reveals the existence of a unique Japanese environmental ethics code built on Japan s cultural traditions, religious practices, and empirical experiences. The discovery of the distinctive Japanese code is not only important for what it discloses as a new philosophy, but most importantly how it can be used to analyse the ethical framework of the Japanese policies. In spite of the positive contributions that Japan has shown towards the global environment, the government has failed to show a corresponding moral obligation to the world ecology in its global environmental policy. The policies examined in the three case studies comprising whaling, nuclear energy, and forestry, have also been found wanting in ecological ethical considerations, both from a Western and Japanese perspective. The main reason for this is that the integrity of the policies has been compromised by Japanese vested interest groups; business and political interests ensure that the policies are primarily focused on maintaining sustainable economic growth. Whilst Japan s global environmental policy initiatives are the key to its economic survival into the 21 st century, and these initiatives may achieve their aim, they do however fail the Japanese code of environmental ethics. viii

10 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am extremely thankful to my supervisors, Professor Purnendra Jain and Professor Tim Doyle, whose encouragement, guidance, and support throughout my research has enabled me to develop the skill of critical thought. I greatly appreciate the tremendous patience and tolerance which they have extended to me during the past years which contributed to my being able to complete the thesis. Professor Jain has been my principle supervisor whose scholarly challenges helped me to develop an independent, investigation ability. I was most fortunate in being able to benefit from the vast experience and knowledge that he has acquired from his Japanese studies. This forced me to be accurate and logical with my arguments and he was always available to support me; his trust in my research was a driving force behind my belief that I would be able to complete the task. I will value the years working under the supervision of a scholar and mentor. Professor Tim Doyle has been my co-supervisor and his scholarly input, particularly in the field of environmental ethics, has been invaluable. His questioning led to me to investigate and explore a new field, that of a distinctive Japanese environmental ethics model, and for this I am extremely thankful. I am indebted to the Centre for Asian Studies in the University of Adelaide; it has given great support by providing the facilities for me to pursue and complete my thesis. I would like to particularly thank Ms. Androniki Pavilidis and Ms. Shoo Lin Siah from the administration team who have helped me with all the paper work and were a great support. I would like to express gratitude to the lecturers in the Japanese language courses who supported me over the past years, Dr. Shoko Yoneyama, Ms. Naomi Aoki, Ms. Kayoko Enomoto, and Ms. Akiko Tomita, and the lectures of Asian Studies / Social Science courses, Dr. Sejin Pak and Dr. Gerry Groot. Their assistance to me while teaching in the courses developed my skills and showed me what scholarly writing is about. x
11 I owe a deep gratitude to the many people who have spent untold hours reading my papers and offering their warm support. My neighbours, Dr. Catherine Delin and her husband Dr. Peter Delin, kindly read my chapters and gave me constructive feedback. Ms. Lia Fox helped me editing my research proposal in the early stage of my candidacy; this help established my early confidence for the long journey. Mr. Brian Danilko also supported me by reading and commenting on my papers. I deeply appreciate the support of these people whose time and dedication helped ease the pain of the journey. I give special appreciation to Dr. Vic Beasley for his professional editing; his understanding of thesis writing was indeed very helpful. I would like to express my gratitude to Professor Shuichi Kitoh in the Institute of Environmental Studies, the University of Tokyo. Reading his books during my literature review moved me to meet and talk with him at his previous post at Keisen University, Tokyo. Professor Kitoh s passionate concern about environmental issues was a further inspiration and led me to the way of Japanese environmental ethics. I also would like to acknowledge the information and offer given to me by Dr. Mike Danaher regarding whaling matters. I would like to express gratefulness to my fellow postgraduates. Firstly to Dr. Sofei Wong who was especially supportive and close; her encouragement and trusting friendship whilst I was working on my thesis helped me achieve that goal. Others in the postgraduate room included Ms. Heather Longford, Mr. Ming Hwa Ting, and Ms. Joy Ricci; I will miss the early mornings spent with Joy and Ming in the room that became my refuge, a place where I felt comfortable while working on my research. This thesis would not have been possible without my husband s love, continued support, and encouragement. He put up with me over a long time and was so patient throughout the process; reading and checking my papers over and over. His dedication was not only for reading my papers but also other chores around the house which enabled me to spend more time on my chapters; without exaggeration I could not have achieved this work without his endurance. He deserves to receive a Ph.D. (Partners Honourly Degree); his commitment to help compelled me to complete this thesis for him. I am grateful for the love and devotion xi
12 that I received from Letitia my Saluki dog, she was always waiting to greet me when I returned home, and to comfort me during difficult times. Finally, my deep and great respect to my parents and to my sister whose encouragement and endless love has been my strength; it has enabled me to carry through with this opus. Even though my sister was not entirely sure of the nature of my thesis, she collected Japanese newspaper articles for me to use in my research. My parents are the hardest working and humblest people I know; my mother loved to study and my father wanted to play during his youth, but instead they had to put their efforts into working hard to sustain their siblings. Although they do not altogether understand my thesis, their belief in my work and their endless love and support during my study time, have been both a source of strength, and a shining example for me to follow. xii
